Summary

Introduced in House, Jan 30, 2026

This bill requires the Federal Acquisition Regulatory Council to adjust certain acquisition-related dollar thresholds for inflation every three years instead of every five years.

For example, the federal government uses less complex procedures for the purchase of property and services valued below the simplified acquisition threshold. Under the bill, this threshold would be adjusted for inflation every three years.
